All About The Sven-Bo!

Steven T. Licardi (aka The Sven-Bo!) is the author of “Death By Active Movement”, and is a spoken word artist, visual artist, sound artist, and photographer. As a child, Steven was diagnosed with a Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) that entailed his emotional state maturing at a slower rate than his mental state. This meant he could not emotionally comprehend what he was thinking. Poetry, and consequently all forms of art, provided him with a way to express himself emotionally so that he could better understand himself and his place in the world. Steven's work has appeared in Campus News (Volume I, Issue 7), The Examination Anthology, Bards Annual (‘11, ‘12 & ‘13), Perspectives: Poetry Concerning Autism and Other Disabilities (Volume II), Songs of Sandy (SOS), Unleashing Satellites, and literary magazines on the campuses of Suffolk County Community College ("Cassandra") and Stony Brook University ("Spoke the Thunder"). In 2010, Steven won 1st Prize in a poetry competition sponsored by Cassandra, the literary magazine of SCCC, Grant Campus. He was a Finalist and Semi-Finalist in the Paumanok Poetry Award 2012 and was awarded Up-and-Coming Bard 2013 by The Bards Initiative.
